Sample rules and team guide
Participation principles
Organizers should publish eligibility, team size, allowed tools, submission format, judging criteria, code of conduct, accessibility support and escalation contacts before registration.
Illustrative team guidance
Teams should agree on a problem, divide tasks, keep a short progress log, credit external assets and prepare a brief demonstration. These are suggestions, not official Bennett University rules.
Fair and safe participation
Respect other participants, protect personal data, use licensed resources, and disclose outside assistance. A real event’s approved rules take precedence.
